# Suggested workflow
|
|
|
|
We use [Spring](https://github.com/rails/spring), and it is already included in
|
|
the project.
|
|
|
|
1. Use the provided bin stubs to automatically start Spring, i.e.
|
|
`bin/rails server`, `bin/rspec spec/models/`, `bin/rails db:migrate`.
|
|
1. If Spring isn't picking up on new changes, use `spring stop`. For example,
|
|
Spring should always be restarted if there's a change in the environment
|
|
keys.
|
|
1. Check Spring's status whenever with `spring status`.
|
|
|
|
Caveat: `bin/rspec` is not equipped with Spring because it affects Simplecov's
|
|
result. Instead, use `bin/spring rspec`.

## Synchronizing a fork with upstream / integrate latest changes
|
|
|
|
When changes in the upstream repository happen, the fork does not get those
|
|
automatically and this is by design. To integrate the changes to the upstream
|
|
repo that were committed since you cloned your fork or synced the last time, use
|
|
the following script: `./scripts/sync_fork.sh` This will fetch the changes and
|
|
merge them into your current workspace.
|
|
|
|
Use this:
|
|
|
|
- to get commits from upsteam master into your branch
|
|
- to sync with latest changes from upsteam master before continuing with a new
|
|
feature on your current branch
|
|
|
|
After you've fetched new commits from upstream, run `./bin/setup`, and it will
|
|
install new gems, npm packages, update database, and restart Rails server.
|
|
|
|
Start the app by running `./bin/startup`, if it's not already running.
|
|
|
|
## Start over / discard all your changes
|
|
|
|
Sometimes it is neccesarry to start over from the beginning or reset the current
|
|
workspace to the state of the upstream branch. Use the helper
|
|
`./scripts/clean_fork.sh` to set your fork to the exact same state as the
|
|
upstream master branch.
|
|
|
|
Use this:
|
|
|
|
- before working on a new feature
|
|
- before creating a new branch to make sure to have all the latest changes in
|
|
your fork also.
|
|
|
|
After you've done that, run `./bin/setup`, and it will update gems, npm
|
|
packages, update database, and restart Rails server.
|
|
|
|
Start the app by running `./bin/startup`, if it's not already running.
